I am so glad you published this. I found the recipe for the frosting. You unlocked a mystery for me. Grandma is gone and I have had the cake recipe for 25 years.

I think she called it a "wacky cake". It was good and she used to let us help with putting it all together.Georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03749843521356271835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8595626797911453964.post-26970577812446726512011-03-13T18:10:48.874-04:002011-03-13T18:10:48.874-04:00Oh, I'm so glad I could help you out! If you d...Oh, I'm so glad I could help you out! If you did want to make it a tad more fancy, you could cut it in half and stack the two pieces like layers. There should be enough frosting to fill it as well, I think. Or you could use some strawberry or seedless raspberry jam as a filling.<br /><br />OK. Sorry about getting carried away there! You can certainly just make it "as is" too. <br /><br />Although... Since it is a St. Paddy's party, you could use green food coloring in the frosting! Woops! There I go again. I don't know why I can never leave well enough alone! LOL<br /><br />No matter how you choose to do it Shawn, I hope you like it! You'll have to let me know. ;~) XOXOMary Sullivan Frasierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10796241299065062308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8595626797911453964.post-49845078104451939702011-03-13T17:54:47.825-04:002011-03-13T17:54:47.825-04:00I am going to a St Patty's day dinner and I wa...I am going to a St Patty's day dinner and I was asked to bring dessert.
